Bangladesh defeated hot favourites China in the World Hockey League at the Dhyanchand Stadium on Wednesday making it one of their most memorable nights in their brief yet illustrious history of hockey.
Bangladesh overcame the Asian powerhouse by 3-2 goals to register their first points in their second game of Round 2, after a defeat against Ireland in their opening game.
The win was all the more remarkable because the Chinese side are 22 places above their Bangladeshi counterparts in 18th place, while the South Asian nation are 40th in the official world rankings.
